Additional Information

The MTD Snowblower Impeller Shaft, part number 917-04126, plays a crucial role in the operation of your snowblower by ensuring that the auger shaft rotates efficiently when turned by the impeller pulley. This component is key to the effective removal of snow, especially in heavy winter conditions. Replacing your impeller shaft with this reliable part can resolve issues like weak snow discharge or a frozen auger mechanism.

This part replaces the previous part number 717-04126 and restores the transfer of motion from the engine to the auger shaft. If your snowblower isn t throwing snow as expected, a worn or damaged impeller shaft may be the cause.

Before starting the repair, power off the snowblower and disconnect the spark plug wire. Wear work gloves to protect your hands while handling metal components. Following these safety steps makes installation safer and helps you get your snowblower back to full performance.

Snowblower impeller shaft replacement
February 14, 2022|PaulNY, NY

part arrive on time and fit. installation was 5 out of 10. just takes time to remove the impeller mechanism and separate and clean all the parts before reassembling. I do recommend replacing the other gear, and all the parts in the housing while you have it all apart. I did not the first time and I wasted time having to do it all again. I did not replace the axle or blades but replaced the rest. about $150 in all including this impeller shaft

Quality Original replacement parts

It was a fairly straight forward process to replace this part. I don't know if it was 100% necessary as the bull gear is brass and showed the most wear.

Easy to install
December 26, 2020|Kevin, Hartford, CT

I needed to replace the brass gear that turns the auger assembly in my snowblower. When I opened the gear box I found wear on the worm gear shaft so I decided to replace it as well. The repair was easy once the auger assembly was removed from the blower. When installing the new worm gear shaft, remember to pack the gear box with a good silicone based lubricant that is good to low temperatures.
